The McDougal Family Benefit Concert

A House For My Kids

Saturday, April 26th

Charlie Daniels Park

12-8 pm

This fun-packed musical event is being held as a benefit for Mt Juliet Residents "The McDougal Family."All proceeds and donations are to be made out to First Baptist Church, in the post script on the check, please designate it for "The McDougal Fund". If you would like to give to this great cause, send checks to First Baptist Church c/o The McDougal Fund" P O Box 226, Mt. Juliet, Tennessee 37121 or if you have questions, please e-mail me at teresashipman@gmail.com.

All money and donations will go to help build a new specially-equipped home for their children. You see, three of their four children have been diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis and because of the oldest son’s current struggle with a mold called Aspergillus, it is now imperative to get the children into a house that is not as prone to mold, dust and other such allergens. As our Progress in the project of raising money for not The McDougal kids, but others like us, we will update this blog and show the progress we are making on a weekly basis. So PLEASE tell everyone you know about us.

P.S. We will donate any of the proceeds that are left over to the Nashville chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation for research and in the near future we hope to set up a non profit agency ourselves, designed to directly help other CF families improve their home environments.
